Convenient access to highly enantioenriched substituted quinolizidines has been achieved by chiral dirhodium(II) carboxylate-catalyzed dearomatizing formal [3 + 3]-cycloaddition of isoquinolinium/pyridinium methylides and enol diazoacetates. Coordination of Lewis basic methylides to dirhodium(II) prompts the rearrangement of the enol-carbene that is bound to dirhodium to produce a donor acceptor cyclopropene. The donor acceptor cyclopropene is in equilibrium with the dirhodium-bound enol-carbene and undergoes both enantioselective [3 + 3]-cycloaddition from the dirhodium-bound enol-carbene and diastereoselective [3 + 2]-cycloaddition by uncatalyzed reaction of the cyclopropene with isoquinolinium or pyridinium methylides. Increasing the mol % of catalyst loading suppresses the [3 + 2]-cycloaddition pathway.
